Definitions
- the invention is in the field of medicinal chemistry.
- the invention relates in particular to a method of reversing local anesthesia induced by a local anesthetic and an alpha-adrenergic agonist, comprising administering an effective low dose of an alpha-adrenergic antagonist.
- Local anesthesia is widely used by dentists to provide pain relief to patients during dental procedures.
- a drug formulation containing a local anesthetic compound such as lidocaine is injected into the gum tissue surrounding the tooth or teeth on which the dental procedure is to be performed.
- Short-acting local anesthetic drug formulations contain lidocai ⁇ e or a related local anesthetic drug dissolved in saline or other suitable injection vehicle.
- local anesthesia with short-acting local anesthetics lasts approximately 20-30 minutes, which is not long enough for many dental procedures.
- lidocaine or other local anesthetic formulations which, in addition to the local anesthetic drug itself, contain low concentrations of epinephrine or another adrenergic receptor agonist such as levonordefrin. More than 90% of the local anesthesia procedures performed by dentists involve local anesthetic formulations containing alpha-adrenergic receptor agonists.
- the vasoconstrictor is necessary because local anesthetics without vasoconstrictor are too short-acting for most dental procedures.
- the added epinephrine stimulates alpha-adrenergic receptors on the blood vessels in the injected tissue. This has the effect of constricting the blood vessels in the tissue.
- the blood vessel constriction causes the local anesthetic to stay in the tissue much longer, resulting in a large increase in the duration of the anesthetic effect (from 20 minutes for the short-acting formulation to 3-6 hours for the long- lasting formulation).
- a major problem with the use of epinephrine-containing local anesthetics is soft-tissue anesthesia (lip, cheek, tongue) which usually lasts many hours longer than anesthesia and analgesia of the tooth pulp. Tooth pulp anesthesia and analgesia are the desired effects of local anesthesia from a dental procedural perspective while soft-tissue anesthesia is usually an undesirable side effect.
- Soft tissue anesthesia results in a number of problems and inconveniences, such as a prolonged and uncomfortable feeling of numbness in and around the mouth, inability to smile, difficulty eating, drinking and swallowing, loss of productivity by missing work hours or meetings etc.
- Lingering soft-tissue anesthesia can be the cause of injuries due to biting of the tongue or lips.
- Lingering soft-tissue anesthesia can also result in loss of productivity due to missed work hours or meetings etc.
- lingering soft-tissue anesthesia is an inconvenience and it is perceived as an annoyance by many patients. Lingering soft-tissue anesthesia can lead to injury especially in children who often bite into the anesthetized tissue out of curiosity. It would therefore be desirable to have a drug that could be used at will by dentists to rapidly reverse local anesthesia after it is no longer needed
- U.S. 4,659,714 discloses a method of prolonging local anesthesia by coadministering a vasoconstrictor, in particular, a vasoconstrictor that acts upon the alpha-adrenergic receptor sites of the blood vessel walls.
- the 714 patent also discloses the subsequent administration of an alpha-adrenergic receptor antagonist to cause reduction of the prolonged anesthesia effect. Included within the group of alpha-adrenergic receptor antagonists described in this patent are phentolamine mesylate. However, the examples make reference to the administration of "phentolamine.” It is much more likely that what was administered was phentolamine mesylate since phentolamine mesylate is FDA approved and readily soluble in water.
- phentolamine is not FDA approved and is relatively insoluble in water.
- Table 1 0.5-1.5 mg of "phentolamine” was administered to groups of patients which were pretreated with lignocaine admixed with epinephrine. The results in Table 1 show a reduction in the duration of anesthesia with increasing amounts of "phentolamine.”
- Example 2 2 mg of "phentolamine” was administered.
- Example 3 four injections of 1 mg each (4 mg total) of "phentolamine” were administered.
- four injections of 1 mg each (4 mg total) of "phentolamine” were administered.
- phentolamine described in the 714 patent (0.5-4 mg) overlap the doses of phentolamine mesylate that are approved by the FDA for the systemic treatment of high blood pressure in patients with pheochromocytoma (total dose of 5mg in a solution of 2.5-5mg/ml). Since those doses are normally intended for systemic treatment of high blood pressure, those high dose levels can cause severe side effects when used in healthy, normal people.
- the package insert of the phentolamine-mesylate product states the following side effect warning: "Myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular spasm, and cerebrovascular occlusion have been reported to occur following the administration of phentolamine, usually in association with marked hypotensive episodes.”
- the drug doses taught by the 714 patent for the reversal of local anesthesia may cause unacceptable side effects, precluding the use of this product for anesthesia reversal in healthy normal subjects in a dentist's office.
- the present invention provides compositions and formulations of low concentrations of phentolamine-mesylate and other alpha adrenergic receptor antagonists and use thereof for reversing the effects of long-lasting local anesthetic agents containing alpha-adrenergic receptor agonists.
- the invention relates to a method of providing local anesthesia to a mammal, comprising:

- the anesthetic agent and alpha adrenergic receptor agonist are administered together in solution.
- the anesthetic agent and alpha adrenergic agonist may be administered by injection, by infiltration or by topical administration, e.g. as part of a gel or paste,
- a solution comprising the anesthetic agent and alpha adrenergic receptor agonist is administered by injection directly into the site to be anesthetized, e.g. prior to a dental procedure.
- Examples of local anesthetics that may be used in the practice of the invention include without limitation lidocaine, polocaine, lignocaine, xylocaine, novocaine, carbocaine, etidocaine, procaine, prilocaine, bupivacaine, cinchocaine and mepivacaine.

- Phentolamine-mesylate is approved by the FDA for the treatment of hypertension in patients with pheochromocytoma, for the treatment of dermal necrosis and sloughing following accidental extravasation of norepinephrine, and for the diagnosis of pheochromocytoma (phentolamine blocking test).
- the drug is supplied in vials containing 5mg of drug substance which may be dissolved in physiological saline or other pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
- the alpha adrenergic receptor antagonist is administered at a low dose, i.e. at a dose that does not cause side effects, i.e. at or below about 0.25 mg per dose for adults (at or below about 0.0036mg/kg) or 0.1 mg per dose for children, more preferably, below about 0.1 mg per dose for adults (below about 0.0014mg/kg) or 0.04mg per dose for children, most preferably, at about 0.08 mg per dose for adults (about 0.001 lmg/kg) or about 0.032mg per dose for children, of phentolamine mesylate or a molar equivalent of another adrenergic receptor antagonist.
- the alpha adrenergic receptor antagonist is present at a concentration of from about 0.001 mg/ml to about 0.25 mg/ml, more preferably, about 0.05 mg/ml to about 0.1 mg/ml.
- the alpha adrenergic receptor antagonist may be administered by injection into the site of anesthesia, by infiltration or by topical administration.
- the alpha adrenergic receptor antagonist is administered to mucosal tissue.
- the alpha adrenergic receptor antagonist may be applied to the site in the form of an impregnated wafer, pellet or cotton ball, whereby the antagonist is taken up by the mucosal tissue resulting in reversal of the anesthesia.
- the alpha adrenergic receptor antagonist is administered to the site of a regional anesthetic block to reverse the block, e.g. by injection or infiltration into the site.
- the alpha adrenergic receptor antagonist is administered via a cannula into the epidural space of an animal to reverse epidural anesthesia.
- Examples of medical procedures that may be carried out according to the present invention include, without limitation, both major and minor surgery, dental procedures, cosmetic surgery, tissue grafting (e.g. hair and bone grafting) and cesarean section.
- reversal of anesthesia according to the present invention is carried out by medical trainees to mitigate any mistakes that are made, and which may lead to the loss of extremities such as fingers, as well as ears and tips of noses.
- Hyaluronidase an enzyme which enhances the diffusion of drugs within tissues, may be administered together with the alpha adrenergic receptor antagonist.
- the hyaluronidase and alpha adrenergic receptor antagonist may be administered together as part of a unitary pharmaceutical composition or as part of separate pharmaceutical compositions, so long as the hyaluronidase and alpha adrenergic receptor antagonist are administered to the site where anesthesia is to be reversed and are present in amounts effective to enhance the diffusion of the alpha adrenergic receptor antagonist and to reverse the anesthesia, respectively.
- the hyaluronidase is administered one or more times into the site of anesthesia.
- hyaluronidase In general, about 1.5 U to about 200U of hyaluronidase is administered in one or more injections. In a most preferred embodiment, about 200 U of hyaluronidase is administered by injection into the site. Those of ordinary skill in the art can determine optimal amounts of hyaluronidase with no more than routine experimentation.
- the tissue graft is a hair graft.
- a low dose of alpha adrenergic receptor antagonist is administered to the site to avoid untoward side effects.
- hair grafts include skin flaps containing a plurality of hair cells and single transplanted hair cell follicles. Typically, such hair grafts are obtained from a site on the animal that has actively growing hair.
- an alpha adrenergic receptor antagonist is administered after a hair graft procedure to reverse the local anesthesia and reduce postoperative telogen effluvium (shedding of hair) and survival of the skin flap.
- hyaluronidase may be administered to the tissue graft site to increase survival of the graft.
- the local administration of hyaluronidase increases skin flap survival.
- hyaluronidase is an enzyme that reduces or prevents tissue injury presumably by causing the rapid diffusion of extravasated fluids to distant areas, thus allowing a better turnover of nutrients.
- the hyaluronidase is generally injected one or more times into the site of the hair graft.
- the present invention can be used to improve survival of other engrafted tissues or bone in any graft surgical procedure where a local anesthetic and an alpha adrenergic receptor agonist is used minimize bleeding during the surgery and where subsequent rapid reperfusion of tissue is desired in order to increase graft survival.
- an alpha adrenergic receptor antagonist is administered after a regional anesthetic block to reverse the block.
- Epidural anesthesia is commonly administered to provide a regional anesthetic block in a number of medical procedures including child birth, cesarean section, surgery to the pelvis and the like.
- Prolonged epidural anesthesia has many untoward side effects, including prolonged paralysis, inability to voluntarily urinate, and hypotension.
- the anesthesiologist injects into the epidural space an equal volume of saline in an effort to dilute the anesthetic and reduce the anesthesia.
- the present invention solves the side effect problems by providing for on demand reversal of the anesthesia without the need for injecting large volumes of saline.
- the invention relates to a method of providing a regional anesthetic block to a mammal, comprising:
- a low dose of the alpha adrenergic receptor antagonist is administered,
- the anesthetic block is epidural anesthesia and the site of the block is the epidural space.
- the invention has application to reversal of other blocks as well including brachial plexus and femoral blocks.
- hyaluronidase is administered together with the alpha adrenergic receptor antagonist to enhance the diffusion of the alpha adrenergic receptor antagonist within the site of the block, e.g. the epidural space, and speed reversal of the anesthesia.
- the invention also relates to a kit comprising a carrier means such as a carton or box having in close confinement therein two or more container means such as carpules, vials, tubes, jars and the like.
- a first container means contains an anesthetic agent and optionally an alpha adrenergic receptor agonist and a second container means contains a low dose of an alpha adrenergic receptor antagonist.
- the alpha adrenergic receptor agonist may be present in a separate container means.
- a further container means may contain hyaluronidase.
- the hyaluronidase is in the same container means as the alpha adrenergic receptor antagonist.
- the anesthetic agent, alpha adrenergic receptor agonist, alpha adrenergic receptor antagonist and, optionally, the hyaluronidase are present in 1.8 mL carpules that fit into a standard dental local anesthetic syringe.
- carpules are available commercially from a variety of suppliers, e.g. Henry Schein, Port Washington, N.N.
- a carpule containing the local anesthetic and alpha adrenergic receptor agonists is placed into the syringe, and the mixture is injected.
- the carpule may then be removed and a second carpule inserted which contains the alpha adrenergic receptor antagonist and, optionally, the hyaluronidase.
- the anesthetic agent, vasoconstrictor, alpha adrenergic receptor antagonist and, optionally, the hyaluronidase may be present in solution, preferably, a sterile solution, optionally containing salts and buffers, or as part of a gel or paste for topical administration. See U.S. Pat. 4,938,970 and Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, A. Osol (ed.), 16th Edition, Mack
- Mammals which may be treated according to the present invention include all mammals that may experience the beneficial effects of the present invention. Such mammals include without limitation humans and veterinary mammals such as cattle, pigs, sheep, horses, dogs, and cats. When applied to children and veterinary animals, the prompt reversal of anesthesia inhibits the child or animal from tearing open fresh sutures.
- Local anesthesia is widely used by dentists to effect anesthesia during dental procedures.
- Local anesthetics often contain alpha-adrenergic receptor agonists to cause vasoconstriction thereby prolonging anesthesia.
- the vasoconstrictor is necessary because local anesthetics without vasoconstrictor are too short-acting for most dental procedures.
- the prolonged local anesthetic effect lasts much longer than required for many dental procedures. It would be desirable to have a drug that could be used at will to rapidly reverse local anesthesia after it is no longer needed.
- Lingering local anesthesia can be the cause of injuries due to biting of the tongue or lips. Lingering local anesthesia can also result in loss of productivity due to missed work hours. Lastly, lingering local anesthesia is an inconvenience and it is perceived as an annoyance by many patients.
- the purpose of the present study was to determine whether phentolamine- mesylate, an injectable alpha-adrenergic receptor agonist, which is FDA approved for the systemic treatment of hypertension in pheochromocytoma patients, rapidly reverses prolonged local anesthesia when injected locally at a very low concentration.
- the phentolamine-mesylate concentration chosen for the present study was so low that it would be expected to lack systemic side- effects such as severe episodes of hypotension that have been described with the high systemic drug doses which are approved by the FDA for the treatment of hypertension in pheochromocytoma patients.
- the present human subjects study was designed to determine whether injection of a physiological saline solution containing an extremely low concentration of phentolamine-mesylate is able to accelerate the reversal of the effects of a previously injected local anesthetic agent containing an alpha- adrenergic receptor agonist.
- An injection of the physiological saline vehicle (without phentolamine-mesylate) served as the control.
- bilateral local anesthesia injections were made into the mouth of the same patient.
- Levonordefrin is a sympathomimetic amine with a pharmacological profile similar to that of epinephrine, but with a lower potency.
- the local anesthetic reversal agent was prepared as follows: A standard vial containing 5mg of lyophilized phentolamine-mesylate for injection, USP (Bedford Laboratories, Bedford, OH 44146) was reconstituted with 1ml of physiological saline using a sterile, disposable 3ml syringe and a sterile disposable hypodermic needle. After dissolution of the lyophilized powder, 0.5ml of the phentolamine- mesylate solution was withdrawn and injected into a 50ml vial of physiological saline for injection (USP) by means of a sterile disposable 3ml syringe and a sterile disposable hypodermic needle. The resulting LARA thus consisted of 0.05mg/ml phentolamine-mesylate in physiological saline.
- a longer needle (11/4") was used for the local anesthetic resulting in more solution being deposited around the infra-orbital nerves.
- LARA or saline were injected with a shorter needle (1/2") resulting in less LARA coming into contact with the anesthetic agent around the infra-orbital nerves.
- the subjects were asked to test the intensity of numbness on both sides at the following sites in the mouth and face: teeth, nose, upper lip and gingiva. Numbness of the teeth was tested by biting or grinding. Lip numbness was tested with the touch of the finger or tongue, and nose numbness was tested with the touch of the finger. Gingiva numbness was tested with the blunt end of a wooden cotton swab. Blinding
- Table 1 shows the times at which numbness disappeared and sensations reappeared in the three subjects at the various sites on both sides of the mouth and face.
- the subjects reported that it was somewhat difficult to determine which side of the lip was recovering first.
- the differences between the two sides of the lip were profound and dramatic.
- lateral differences were reported to be pronounced even in the very early stages of recovery.
- the difficulty to sense lateral differences in the lips between the two sides early in the recovery process is thought to be due to the following fact:
- the labial branches of the infra-orbital nerve decussate at the midline, resulting in a crossover of innervation (and resulting sensation) at the midline of the upper lip.
- Table 1 Subject E - LARA on right hand side (RHS), Vehicle on LHS
- LARA had a profoundly faster effect on removing the numbness associated with local anesthesia than using physiological saline.
- the total amount of phentolamine-mesylate contained in the administered LARA solution was 0.08mg (1.6ml of a 0.05mg/ml solution).
- This total dose of phentolamine-mesylate is approximately 62 times lower than the 5mg dose approved by the FDA for systemic treatment of hypertension in pheochromocytoma patients (1ml of a 5mg/ml solution) and which can cause severe episodes of hypotension in normal patients.
- any systemic side effects such as those that can occur with the FDA-approved high dose, are likely to be absent. Indeed, in the present study, no side-effects of any kind were noted during or after administration of 0.05mg/ml phentolamine- mesylate.
